That is probably true, and it certainly makes good business sense
to accept the local currency, but it is not a legal requirement.

Yes it is. It is a legal requirement.


Please quote the law that makes it so.

Prove that it is otherwise (I guess it is easier to prove that Elvis Lives).

You are the one asserting that such a law exists.

You are the one who insists the opposite.
So a shop-owner in London refuses your money ? What can you do ?
At least you must refer to a lawtext to convince him he's wrong.
How are you going to convince him otherwise ?
Such a scenario never materializes.
-------
If it materializes or not wasn't the question. But if the shop-owner refuses your money ? What can you do ?

As you can see yourself: it was most relevant. English retail shops operating in England and handling all the transaction domestically - say at their stores must accept the pound sterling. It is the law. So, a shop-owner doesn't turn down English money. If you are a bit hesitant, I can tell you that your hard earned kronas will do in Södermalm - no, there is no risk that a legitime vendor requires payment in Pakistani money.
